The lightning crashes And the rain pours down Inside my head I cannot think Or dare to dream Because the thunder Echoes loudly In the hollow spaces But just maybe After the storm Finally passes I can find closure, Begin to heal, And learn to live Without you. JD

Heaven called Why did you have to pick up? Why didn't you just let it ring? Or not accept the charges Heaven called Why didn't you ask them to wait Until I could see you one more time? Because I needed to see you I need to see you There are so many things Left to say So many things left unsaid Heaven called You had told me That you weren't ready But the look on your face Told a different story One of peace and serenity Heaven called You never pick up If you don't know the number That has to tell me something Heaven called And you answered Now, you're gone I don't...

When you left, It was sudden Without so much
As a good-bye Now, I can't Shake the feeling That somehow You didn't even know That I loved you And it cuts deep Like thorns Piercing rose petals Or walking barefoot Through shattered glass. JD
